章 148: Young Fire, Old Ember: A Bone Confrontation

A resolution crystallizes in my heart: I must evolve, become stronger. The haunting memory of Lee Hyun's incident serves as a stark reminder that a second chance might not always be within reach. 

Two paths lie before me. Firstly, I am committed to relentless leveling up. Every opportunity to absorb energy, no matter how minute, is precious. Even if it means facing a horde of level 1 or 2 zombies, I'll seize the meager energy they offer. There's a saying about the worth of even a mosquito's meat. In distant corners of the world, people transform these tiny pests into delicacies, relishing mosquito burgers with gusto. With such determination, I'm charging into this battle, leading with my true body.

My second course of action beckons me to the enigmatic Continent of the Dragon and Phoenix, the homeland of Lee Hyun and Ye Xiao. Both hailed from a lineage of cultivators, masters of techniques that can amplify strength and even promise immortality.
